Is this a good stock?

[codygregg]

I have a 25gal tank. It's done cycling and I'm looking at getting this stock.

4 corys
3 silver lyretail mollies
3 sunset platies

Is that alright for my size tank? Also if it is, would it be possibly to later add a German blue ram? Any advice is greatly appreciated

It's looks good. Be prepared for babies though. Mollies and platies are very good breeders. I think a ram would be alright as well

Ok! I've done a lot of research and it all looks good. I just want to get some opinions!

Sorry for all the questions, it's my first real tank (besides a bowl with a betta in it when I was little) but I was wondering if I could put a couple small snails or shrimp at the bottom? Everything i've been reading seems like it would be fine, but I always get the best advise here

They would be alright. I like ghost shrimp cheap and do a good job cleaning

 

[codygregg]

Thanks! That's what I will do

You could probably increase the school of cories if you wanted to. I'm sure they would appreciate the pals.

I agree that shrimp probably won't be a problem.

Ok thanks for the advice! Will do
